Lorelai Gilmore had a whole lot more money than she let on. The single mom always seemed to be just scraping by, but in reality, the ‘Gilmore Girls’ house in charming Stars Hollow, Connecticut, is worth a whopping $2.8million. That’s just one of the fictional TV homes that would be worth millions in the real world today. Real estate website Trulia has estimated the value of some of TV’s most famous properties – even ones that never actually existed.
The Gilmore house, for instance, was built on the Warner Brothers lot in Studio City, California. Trulia figures that it was actually located in Washington, Connecticut, the real-life town that inspired the show’s creator.
The Dunphy residence from Modern Family in West Los Angeles, meanwhile, would sell for an estimated $1.45million.
The Sopranos’ suburban New Jersey mansion would go for $1.7million.
And wealthy Sandy and Kirsten Cohen from ‘The O.C.’ lived on a $5.8million estate – which Trulia estimates is in Malibu, not Orange County.
Most of TV’s famous houses are based on real homes – though they weren’t always in the right place. The house used in ‘Rosanne’ is actually in Evansville, Indiana – even though the Connor family lived in a suburb of Chicago.
